The CAR-15 Handguard is a lightweight, slim-profile replacement part for AR-15 style rifles. A close reproduction of the older Colt six hole design common from Vietnam to the mid-90s.
This handguard recreates the iconic CAR-15 styling while utilizing contemporary manufacturing methods and materials. It's engineered as a drop-in replacement for shooters after a retro or minimalist aesthetic. The handguard incorporates a heat shield and is constructed from high-quality materials in the USA.
These handguards are suitable for many clone rifles, particularly models from the 1960s to the 1990s. They are found on the US Army XM177 and Air Force GAU series, Delta carbines, Gordon Carbines, early XM4s, and various Colt models. This product serves as an accurate reproduction of the hard-to-find Colt originals, offering the same appearance but constructed with modern materials.
The CAR-15 handguard allows builders to recreate historically significant rifle configurations or simply add a touch of classic design to their AR-15 platform. It provides a balance of period-correct aesthetics and contemporary build quality.
